TIPS
Record mode, white balance, and picture mode
This function is useful when you need a more precise white balance than preset WB can
provide. Point the camera at a sheet of white paper under the light source you want to use to
determine the white balance. The optimum white balance for the current shooting conditions
can be saved in the camera. This is useful when shooting a subject under natural light, as well
as under various light sources with different color temperatures.
Set [; FUNCTION] to [V] beforehand. (gP. 100)
After pressing the shutter button, [WB NG RETRY] is displayed:
j When there is not enough white in the image, or when the image is too bright, too dark or the colors
look unnatural, you cannot register the white balance. Change the aperture and shutter speed
settings, then repeat the procedure from Step 1.
